Hi, Please send your code. Your nav need to be:

<nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>

I had the same issue. For me the problem was i saved the file as About.html....but in my nav its under about.html...I had the uppercase A when it should have been lowercase. Make sure its spelled exactly the same with proper caps.

Have you tried right clicking on the left of the workspace where the files are. Right click where you want the file, then select NEW FILE. This should create a new file that can be renamed to about.html
